About Be Pain Free
Helping you make sense of red light therapy
Hi, we’re Deborah and Jonathan Bispham, the husband and wife team behind Be Pain Free.
We started Be Pain Free in 2017 with a simple idea: to help people find practical ways to feel better, move more comfortably and keep doing the things they enjoy.
The idea grew from Jonathan’s more than 35 years of experience as an osteopath. Over those years, he saw first-hand how pain can affect far more than just how someone feels. It can change how they move, how active they are and sometimes even the things they feel able to do.
It also became clear that many people wanted to know what they could do for themselves at home.
Why red light therapy?
Over the years, Jonathan became increasingly interested in light therapies and the growing research into photobiomodulation, more commonly known as red light therapy.
We became fascinated too.
Not just by the technology itself, but by the research exploring how different wavelengths of light interact with the body and how red and near-infrared light are being studied in areas including pain, joints, muscles, movement and recovery.
The more we learned, the more we realised something else.
Red light therapy can be incredibly confusing.
There are wavelengths, irradiance, dosage, treatment times and technical terms such as photobiomodulation and mitochondria. Then there are all the claims online about what red light therapy can supposedly do.
It can be difficult to know what to believe.
That’s where Be Pain Free comes in
We want to make red light therapy easier to understand.
That means explaining the science in plain English, looking at what the research actually says and being open about what we know, what we don’t know and where the evidence is still developing.
We also want people to understand how red light therapy can be used safely and practically at home.
For those who decide it’s right for them, we’ve developed our own range of wearable red and near-infrared light therapy products designed to make home use simple and convenient.
But Be Pain Free is about more than selling products.
We want to give people the information and confidence to make informed choices about their own health and wellbeing.
Still learning. Still asking questions.
The science of photobiomodulation continues to evolve, and so will Be Pain Free.
We’ll continue reading the research, asking questions and sharing what we learn in a way that everyday people can understand.
No exaggerated promises. No unnecessary jargon.
Just useful information, practical options and a genuine desire to help people feel better, move more freely and live with less pain.
Thank you for being here.
